I definitely hadn't read the book before, and the Cornwall setting signals that this is new. But there's no denying the pervasive sense of déjà vu in After Eden's first seven chapters: so much like Twilight, Hush, Hush, and whichever other books that follow some "teen paranormal romance" formula.Had...
A copy of this novel was provided Bloomsbury Australia in exchange for an honest review. After Eden was a quick cute read, perfect for a summer afternoon. The story of After Eden was easy to follow; there were no giant or unexpected reveals, but the storyline was also interesting. After Eden fol...
Thanks to Bloomsbury Publishing Australia for sending me a copy for review Definitely a novel that will either pull you apart or lift you up, this is a classic either love or hate novel. This book has left me..... I feel...... I am lost for words. Not in a terribly bad way, but not in the best w...
Oh dear. After Eden, what can I say? Perhaps I can start with that I should have known better. I was tempted by the time traveling, the starry cover, which all hint to the kind of sci-fi I easily fall for. But I should have paid more attention to the obvious instalove inherent in the synopsis. I sho...
5 Words: Flat, scientific, artsy, teens, true-love.Read it at Tea Party PrincessSo, I'm not a fan of time travel.

After Eden by Helen Douglas is a (currently) stand-alone story combining time travel with light YA romance. I was excited while reading the first half, and then mellowed to only intrigued during the second half. After Eden has an intriguing premise with a fair amount of sci-fi potential, but it ende...
This review and others are posted at Inspiring Insomnia.I enjoy stories about time travel, but one of my big challenges can be trying to wrap my mind around the science. Often, an author's explanation can be so complex that I eventually give up trying to figure out whether the author has covered al...
Gave up after 150 pages of cliches and Eden hating on other girls (especially Chloe Mason; my GOD, Eden has such a hate-on for Chloe). After Eden is a list of cliches turned into a time-travel story. There are the dead parents, how all the girls fall all over themselves for Ryan because there are ...
After Eden is a quick, easy read with a believable and interesting sci-fi premise. Unfortunately, that's about all this book has going for it.It started off rather slowly, possibly due to the fact that I didn't really have any connection with the characters. Eden was a fairly bland character; she ha...
